Wedding Sign Maker

Set a welcome sign, monogram or table card at a size that actually exists, with ornament that is drawn rather than implied. Script faces are loaded before anything is rendered, long names are fitted instead of clipped, and the output can leave either as a transparent PNG or as genuine vector SVG for vinyl and acrylic.

Notes on making this print properly

Sign sizes here are real. A3, A2, 18 by 24 inches and 24 by 36 inches are the formats print shops and acrylic suppliers actually stock, and the pixel figure under the preview is what the file will be at your chosen resolution. A 24 by 36 inch welcome sign at 300 DPI is a large file by design; if your printer is happy with 150 DPI for something viewed from two metres away, drop the slider and halve it.

Script faces are the whole point of a wedding sign, and they are also the thing most likely to go wrong. Declaring a webfont does not download it, and a canvas will quietly draw with a fallback and never repaint. This page loads every face it offers, waits for them, and only then draws — which is why the panel reports whether the typefaces are ready.

Long names are fitted rather than clipped. Each line is measured and stepped down in size until it fits inside the safe margin, so "Alexandra and Bartholomew" behaves the same as "Emma and James" instead of running off the edge.

The SVG export keeps text as live text at millimetre coordinates, so it scales without loss and a cutter can read it. If the machine that opens the file does not have the same fonts installed, convert the text to outlines in your cutting software first — that is a normal step for vinyl work and it is the reason both a raster and a vector option are offered here.

Questions

Is anything uploaded?

No. Everything is composed and exported in your browser.

Why does the preview change slightly a moment after loading?

That is the redraw once the real typefaces have arrived. The first paint uses whatever is already available so you are not staring at an empty box; the second uses the correct faces.

Which export should I use for an acrylic or vinyl sign?

SVG. It carries the geometry rather than pixels, so a cutter can scale and path it. Use the transparent PNG when the sign is being printed onto a coloured board and you want the board colour to show through.

What is the safe margin for?

Framing and mounting eat into the edge of a sign, and an easel or acrylic stand often covers a few millimetres. Nothing in the composition crosses the pink line, so the sign stays readable however it is presented.

Can I add my own artwork or a photograph?

Not on this page — it composes type and drawn ornament only, which is what keeps the vector export clean. For artwork-led signs, build the layout in the editor and use this page for the lettering.
